“Black Dignity is a textured and moving account of how social
movements give new life to our deepest commitments and our highest
aspirations.”—Corey D. B. Walker, Wake Forest Professor of the
Humanities, Wake Forest University
“Black Dignity is a defining treatise for our contemporary moment.
Vincent Lloyd explains how the Black Lives Matter movement builds
on and corrects historic Black Radical traditions. A must study for
students of Black freedom struggle.”—Akinyele Omowale Umoja,
coeditor of Black Power Encyclopedia
“Lloyd powerfully joins a growing and urgent literature on the
relationship among civic ideals, political and social morality,
racial identity, and the emotions. I suspect Black Dignity will
quickly become a fixture in conversations concerning visions of
America against the backdrop of racial violence and
inequity.”—Christopher J. Lebron, author of The Making of Black
Lives Matter: A Brief History of An Idea
